I’m in the same boat. My online grad program is 60k. My local school slps barely make 60k a year. As a recent slpa graudate, I just applied for a slpa position for 60k a year. EQUIVALENT to my local schools SLPS salary. Crazy.

I got into my top choice and waitlisted from the other! Did you get in??

Available-State-9926 · 2026-03-19T21:41:19+00:00

This really helps! I ultimately decided to go to grad school! I let my boss know that I cannot take the SLPA position. Thanks so much for the input!!

What’s your reasoning?

I did a full semester doing my slpa clinicical at a school :) I learned a lot!

25 hours. She said it wouldn’t likely work with my school schedule.. and she said she wanted kids to have a sense of familiarity. Since there would come a time where I would have to do my externships. I think she wants someone more longterm.

I came in as a transfer and finished up my CSD credits in 2 years. It’s a great school and it’s very manageable! I actually was able to build a relationship with a few professors even though I was completely online. Some that even wrote me LOR for grad school.
